Outstanding!

This is a Historic and a very charming place! We spent the Thanksgiving holidays with my wife and two kids (11 & 3yo) and let me tell you that we had an amazing time. The house is spacious with beautiful and comfortable furniture, a very well-equipped kitchen, super comfy beds and fully renovated bathrooms. The back patio was ideal for entertaining as it had a gas fire pit. Sally was a superb host and gave us a few tips for our stay. We adored the Scottish Christmas parade that went by in front of the house which was a dreamy experience for parents and kids alike! Everything is walking distance to superb restaurants and shops. Overall, this was such a charming experience and would love to go back! It was truly a unique experience to live in such a well-maintained historic house in a neighborhood that is as beautiful as it is appealing!
